I just received my new 93150 band today with the H code and my fat spring bars dont fit the end links. I dont have the 501b end links yet but on the last link of the band where the spring bars go through....they dont fit....anyone know why?

The answer is to get some thinner springbars methinks.

Not sure that you would really know if a spring-bar was genuine Rolex or not...

All 93150 bracelets use the same diameter spring bars 2mm.

No Rolex has their own springbars. Try an AD or a watchmaker with a parts account.

What watch are you putting this bracelet on? A Sub or GMT? If purchased new, it should have come with spring bars.

There are two thicknesses available; the thicker ones are for the diving bands.

This is a sport band, and takes the thinner style, as you have discovered. The 2mm figure that Tools mentioned sounds right (I think the others are 2.5mm), and as he also mentioned you don't really need to get them from Rolex...
